Add the Storage Capacity Limit field to stock buffers, which restricts recommended procurement quantity to ensure that the limits of storage are never surpassed.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0

Adds a storage capacity limit to stock buffers so Odoo never recommends buying more than the location can hold. Users set the maximum quantity on the buffer form and the procurement recommendation is automatically capped.

This module extends the DDMRP stock buffer screen with a new field called Storage Capacity Limit. You enter the maximum quantity that the storage location can hold for the product.

Once a limit is set, Odoo automatically reduces the recommended procurement quantity so that the quantity already on location plus incoming short-term quantities never exceed that limit. If the calculated limit is below the buffer's minimum quantity, the recommendation becomes zero instead of a negative or too-small order. If the buffer uses a purchase multiple, the recommendation is rounded down to that multiple.

The module also tracks the quantity currently on location on the buffer, which is used in the calculation. The limit is only applied when it is greater than zero; buffers without a limit keep their normal behaviour.

  • Where it appears: on the stock buffer form, right after the lead days field.
  • What it changes: the recommended procurement quantity shown on the buffer.
  • Business rule: never propose a procurement that would push on-hand plus short-term incoming quantity above the storage capacity limit, even if this creates planning or execution alerts.
  • It touches the stock.buffer model and its procurement recommendation computation.
